Chapter 225: Spirit Stone is Hard to Buy Baked Cakes
Qin Han and Liu Xin'er glanced at each other, and then he said, "We just happened to pass by here, little brother, is it convenient for you here?" If it's convenient, we want to take refuge in your house, with a lot of people chasing us behind. ”
Qin Han finished speaking in one breath, and explained his intentions.
Going in to avoid the limelight will not cause any trouble for the teenager.
The thin young man standing at the door hesitated for a moment, and after a moment, he nodded:
"You can come in."
Qin Han smiled slightly, "Thank you." ”
The courtyard was not big, and the young man standing behind the door opened a position on his side and motioned for the two to enter the house.
When I walked into the courtyard, I saw that it was broken.
The yard is not big, an old willow tree covers most of the space, there is an ancient well under the willow tree, and there are wisps of aura overflowing from it, but I am afraid that I can't see any clues with the eyes of young people.
In addition to an old willow tree and an ancient well, there are only some daily utensils and dusty debris in the courtyard, as well as a few old houses.
Once inside, the boy led the two to a slightly larger house. At the boy's suggestion, the two came to an old table of eight immortals and sat down.
"Both, I'll pour you a bowl of water."
The boy's voice was very immature, completely inconsistent with his age, like a child, and if he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would have thought that he was just a seven or eight-year-old child.
When pouring the water, Qin Han glanced at it and saw the young man with a smile in his eyes, and there was a sadness between his eyebrows.
"Are you alone at home?" Qin Han couldn't help but ask.
The boy nodded, then shook his head again, "No, there are four people in my family. ”
"Four people?"
Qin Han was puzzled, in his perception, there was no other breath of life except for the young man.
The boy smirked, "My father, my mother, and my brother." ”
Qin Han was stunned.
Liu Xin'er on the side smiled softly, "What about them?" ”
The boy's eyes dimmed, "Dead." My father and my mother died when I was very young, leaving me to live with my brother, but last winter my brother fell seriously ill and couldn't be cured even after several begging for him. ”
Liu Xin'er froze in place, her face full of apologies, and finally looked at Qin Han.
Qin Han shook his head, he just wanted to open his mouth to comfort, but the young man laughed:
"Big brother and big sister, you don't have to comfort me, because when my brother left, he told me that he would always be with me in heaven, and my brother also said that I should take care of myself, and everything will be fine when I grow up."
"And how do you live?" Qin Han felt sad in his heart, and something seemed to be blocked in his throat.
The courtyard is dilapidated, the walls are empty, and the young man is weak.
Such a thin teenager, how can he make a living alone.
The young man smiled, "Last summer, I was hungry, so I went to hang out on the street, but after a long time, no one was willing to call me to eat, so I was ready to go home and drink a scoop of cold water to pad my stomach, but as soon as I was about to leave, the shopkeeper Lin stopped me and asked me if I would like to help wash the dishes and sweep the floor in his restaurant, saying that I would like to take care of the food every day, and I agreed without hesitation." However, I was not embarrassed to mention the matter of eating that day, and I lasted until noon the next day. ”
The young man's gaze gradually softened, thinking that the emotions in his heart had calmed down, Qin Han smiled gently, "Then have you been washing dishes and sweeping the floor in that Lin shopkeeper's restaurant?" ”
The young man nodded, "Today, Shopkeeper Lin has something at home, and the restaurant is not open." ”
Qin Han smiled gently, then looked at the young man and asked, "Then do you want to leave here?" We came from a place in the Sunshine Department, and we came to Zhenlong City to do some things. If you want to get out of here, when we're done, you can go back with us, there are a lot of people your age. I promise you have food and drink every day, and no one will dare to bully you. ”
The boy's brow furrowed slightly.
Qin Han sighed in his heart, knowing that he was in a hurry, so he said apologetically: "It's okay, you still have a long time to think about it, don't worry." In this way, I'll wait for you to think about it for three days, okay? ”
The boy's brows furrowed, and he nodded silently.
Qin Han regretted a little, for the young man, the two of them were just strangers passing by, and as soon as he entered the house, he asked the young man to follow him back to the Rizhao Department, which was a personal wariness.
Not only did he reflect on his way of doing things, but he was too frivolous after all.
But the words have been spoken, the wood has been completed, and it is difficult to change.
Don't trust strangers, that's right.
He laughed at himself in his heart, then looked at the young man and changed the subject:
"Have you eaten then?"
The boy shook his head, "Not yet." ”
After a pause, the young man said, "Big brother, big sister, have you eaten?" If you don't eat it, I'll go out to buy baked cakes and come back and we will eat together, there is a family selling baked cakes outside, and their baked cakes are delicious. ”
Qin Han nodded, "Yes!" However, we have caused you a lot of trouble in your house, and we can no longer take advantage of you and let you invite us to eat baked cakes, so that my brother is inconvenient to go out, I will give you money, and you are responsible for running errands to buy baked cakes, how about it? ”
The boy finally smiled, "Good! ”
Qin Han smiled lightly, and then rummaged through the storage bag, but after a while, his face turned ugly.
There are countless spirit stone treasures in the storage bag, but if he is asked to rummage through the storage bag for gold and silver, it will be really difficult for him. After a long period of rummaging, he finally had to accept the fact that he had no silver on him.
His consciousness withdrew from the storage bag, looked at the young man and smiled, and then looked at Liu Xin'er, "Xin'er, do you have any silver there?" ”
"Seems to have been." Liu Xin'er is not so sure.
The young man on the side hurriedly said:
"Big brother, big sister, I saved some money, I'll invite you to eat!"
Qin Han hurriedly shook his head, and finally he took out a spirit stone and handed it to the young man, "Then how can it be done!" Come, take it to the owner who sells the biscuits, and he promises to give it to you. ”
"This ......"
Looking at the stone in Qin Han's hand, the young man looked puzzled. Can you really buy baked cakes with a stone?
Qin Han smiled, patted his chest and promised, "If you can't get the baked cakes, I'll take you out to eat delicious food!" ”
"Okay, big brother, you wait for me for a while, and I'll be back in a while."
The young man took the spirit stone quickly, then got up and went back to his room, and after leaving the room, he said hello to the two of them, and then left in a hurry.
Qin Han and Liu Xin'er looked at each other, and finally laughed.
It turned out that in the perception of the two, after the young man returned to his room, he took out a copper plate from the futon under the pillow, and after putting the copper plate in his pocket, he came out with the spirit stone to greet the two.
Obviously, the young man didn't think that the spirit stone given by Qin Han was anything valuable.
